Chapter 83 Forget Each Other in the Jianghu 7
Chapter 83 Forget Each Other in the Jianghu 7
When Chen Zhifeng learned about Aunt Luo, he knew that she had a daughter who was about the same age as him.
However, she was in the Third High School, while I was in the Second High School.
He had no right to stop his father from remarrying, nor did he dare to.
Just before they registered their marriage, he subtly reminded Aunt Luo of something.
His father liked to drink and had a bad temper.
Aunt Luo frowned, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
In the end, she agreed to marry her father, and he didn't say anything more.
They simply went to a restaurant with their family and relatives for a meal and then got their marriage certificate.
During the meal, the relatives asked why Luo Xiaoxiao hadn't come.
Aunt Luo simply said that she was busy with her studies and needed tutoring, so she didn't have time.
This time was no different; Aunt Luo was busy from early morning, preparing a table full of dishes.
In the end, there was no place for her at the entire table.
While eating, my aunt kept nitpicking, saying that this dish was overcooked and that this one wasn't flavorful enough.
He couldn't stand it anymore and gave up his seat for Aunt Luo.
Then, Auntie's son started clamoring for Four Happiness Meatballs, so Grandma told Aunt Luo not to eat them yet and to hurry up and make them.
However, making Four Happiness Meatballs involves many steps, takes a long time, and is laborious; it cannot be done in a short period of time.
This is clearly making things difficult for someone.
Then, somehow, Aunt Luo and Third Aunt started arguing.
Feeling humiliated, the father immediately smashed his wine glass and beat Aunt Luo in front of the whole family.
None of the family members tried to dissuade them; they all just watched the spectacle from the sidelines.
He just watched, not daring to go forward.
My cousin clapped his hands and shouted, "Well done!"
Aunt Luo fell to the ground and wouldn't get up. Dad kicked her a few times to tell her not to play dead.
Auntie just pursed her lips and scolded Dad:
"Brother, look at your taste! The women you marry are all worse than the last."
Grandma and Grandpa both chimed in, but no one cared about Aunt Luo on the ground.
He knew from the age of eight that his family was different from others.
In their family, the third aunt was at the very top; even the grandparents listened to her.
Needless to say, Dad was even worse off; and when Mom was still alive...
Every time there was a conflict with his third aunt, his father would firmly stand on her side.
The same goes for grandparents.
While most families have some degree of preference for sons over daughters, their family is the opposite.
It's not the other way around, but we place special emphasis on our third aunt.
Now, apart from the fact that Mom has been replaced by Aunt Luo, nothing else in this house has changed.
Finally, he couldn't hold back any longer and tentatively whispered:
"Third Aunt, should we take him to the hospital?"
"If something really happens, the police will definitely come looking for trouble!"
"Why give her anything? She's just being dramatic."
This time, we're going to let her know who's in charge and who makes the decisions at home.
Don't take yourself too seriously from the start.
"Yes, we need to set some rules for her, otherwise she'll definitely take advantage of us in the future."
Grandma chimed in.
The whole family didn't take it seriously and continued eating. After finishing their meal, they sat around the table and played mahjong.
In the end, Aunt Luo woke up on her own, got up, and went to the hospital by herself.
Before leaving, he was met with a room full of laughter.
He then made up an excuse, ran out to catch up with Aunt Luo, and took her to the hospital.
He knew Luo Xiaoxiao and went to the school to look for her, eventually finding out that she was at her classmate He Wenwen's villa.
He came running.
Upon seeing the car, he became somewhat nervous, never expecting that Luo Xiaoxiao would have her classmate drive her to the hospital in a luxury car.
He recounted the story haltingly in the car.
The expected anger and accusations did not materialize.
Luo Xiaoxiao in the back seat simply clenched her fists and remained silent.
He Wenwen couldn't help but scold:
"Your father went too far. Aunt Luo is his wife, not his slave."
They prepared a whole table of food, but wouldn't let her sit down to eat, and even hit her, it's unbelievable..."
She wanted to curse him as a beast, but with his son in front of her, she could only glare fiercely at Chen Zhifeng.
Chen Zhifeng lowered his head in shame, remained silent for a while, and then stammered:
“Actually, I tried to persuade Aunt Luo before they got their marriage certificate, but she didn’t listen.”
Xiao Xiao then looked up at him and said to the system:
"Auntie, was it like this in your past life too?"
"Yes, you already reminded her before. She thought you didn't want her to get married, and that's why she reacted to Chen Zhifeng."
Xiao Xiao tightly closed her eyes.
Upon arriving at the hospital, I went directly to the sixth floor of the orthopedic ward.
Xiao Xiao stood outside the door and didn't go in.
Instead, he went to the doctor's office, found the attending physician, and asked about the situation.
"Your mother has an external injury on the left side of her head, as well as some neurological symptoms. Fortunately, there is no intracranial hemorrhage, and there is also a traumatic tympanic membrane perforation."
This can cause your mother's ear pain and hearing loss, but it usually resolves on its own within three to four months.
Hearing this, Xiao Xiao gradually felt relieved.
But the doctor's expression turned serious, and he solemnly reminded him:
"Your mother has a serious heart condition with poor cardiac function. She cannot be stimulated, cannot do strenuous activity, let alone..."
Do you know who hit your mother?
I suggest you call the police!
Xiao Xiao clenched her fists and fell silent.
She knew that calling the police would be useless.
If Luo Huimin wanted to call the police, she probably would have done so yesterday, instead of waiting until now.
Her clenched fist gradually loosened weakly.
As she turned to go to the ward, the system's auntie's voice rang out.
"Xiaoxiao, your aunt doesn't recommend that you see your mother right now."
"why?"
"Because your mother is in a difficult situation, and this is partly due to her overconfidence and partly due to her not listening to your advice."
Seeing her at this time will only embarrass her and make her resent you even more, thinking you're there to laugh at her.
"Huh?! No, I didn't... I just wanted to help her."
Xiao Xiao quickly defended herself.
"Let me tell you a story!"
During the Three Kingdoms period, Tian Feng advised Yuan Shao, but Yuan Shao did not listen, and ultimately suffered a major defeat at the Battle of Guandu.
On the way, recalling Tian Feng's earlier advice, he felt ashamed and ordered Tian Feng to be killed.
"what?"
Xiao Xiao's mouth dropped open in her mind.
How could this be?
Shouldn't they admit their mistakes, apologize, and take advice seriously?
"Eight or nine out of ten people in the world are mediocre. Yuan Shao was like that, and so was your mother. Few people can transcend the shackles of human nature."
Therefore, your appearance before her now will only exacerbate the rift between mother and daughter.
Xiao Xiao was stunned. She stood blankly outside Luo Huimin's hospital room, staring at her quietly through the glass door for a while before turning and leaving.
"Xiaoxiao, aren't you going to see your mother?"
He Wenwen caught up with him, puzzled, and asked.
"No, Wenwen, lend me some money!"
"Okay, how much!"
He Wenwen was taken aback for a moment, then immediately agreed.
Xiao Xiao didn't know either. She had just asked the doctor, who said she might have to stay in the hospital for about a week.
She went to the nurses' station and, through a nurse, inquired about the price of caregivers.
They hired a quick and efficient Aunt Chen as a caregiver for a little over 200 yuan a day.
She was here explaining things to the caregiver, asking Aunt Chen to help persuade Luo Huimin that she couldn't stay in that house.
She would charge extra, and finally, she gave a small reminder:
"Don't say I hired you, just say..."
She hesitated and looked at Chen Zhifeng, as if to say it was him.
But this could cause Luo Huimin to misunderstand and still harbor illusions about that family.
After a brief silence, she said in a somewhat indifferent tone:
"Just say that a volunteer from the domestic violence relief center asked you to take care of her on her behalf, that's all!"
"Okay...okay, Auntie got it."
Aunt Chen looked at the girl in front of her, who was about the same age as her own daughter, with complicated emotions.
I sighed inwardly; every family has its own troubles.
After leaving the hospital, Xiao Xiao did not return to the He family villa. Instead, she said goodbye to He Wenwen and took a bus back to her rented apartment.
The next day, she carried her schoolbag and boarded the train bound for XX city.
